For many years an ISO committee has been working on combining ISO and AWS to create a combined worldwide standard, but while discussions continue this could take many years to achieve. ISO contains limited information on brazed or soldered joints these are covered in ANSI/AWS. The British system was standardised in 1933 and the latest of five revisions was published in 1995 as BSEN 22553, which is identical to ISO 2553. Weld symbols on drawings was originally published in 1982 based on BS 499 (British Standards Institution 1980), ISO 2553 (International Standards Organisation 1979) and ANSI/AWS A2.4 (American Welding Society-1979) standards. This contemporary book provides an up-to-date review on the application of ISO and AWS standards and a comparison between them. The current European and ISO standards and the American standard are substantially similar, but the ANSI/AWS standard includes some additional symbols and also symbols for non-destructive testing. Most of the rest of the world use ISO. These standards have been through numerous revisions over the last few years; and the current standard
